Our Society was founded in 1881 by Hartford high school senior, Gertrude O. Lewis. For 84 years, we were the only statewide agency offering protective service to children until the current state agency was formed. From there our primary focus shifted to animals and over the years we have added and expanded animal shelters, built a staff of caring professionals, recruited a corps of dedicated volunteers, initiated humane education programs, entered into the public affairs arena, and defined our relationship of people and pets in the environment.
Our most recent expansion was the extensive renovation of our Westport shelter, completed in June 2004, which triples our capacity for housing pets and includes a state-of-the art medical facility to provide them with the best veterinary care. We look forward to providing increased services to the residents of Fairfield County.
We are also pleased to report that the Fox Memorial Clinic, located adjacent to the Newington shelter, has been open to the public since April 1999. The pet wellness center offers basic wellness care, catastrophic care, spay/neuter services and vaccinations for pet owners who cannot otherwise afford veterinary treatment.
